They are very knowledgeable and kind! They fixed my grandmothers coo coo clock and it has worked great. They will keep your clock for over a week to make sure it keeps the correct time. But it's worth it as they do a great job

Today I had Master Clock Repair service my grandfather clock in my home. Michael showed up within the appointment time frame. He did a nice job cleaning and adjusting my clock. Michael has been taking care of it since 1991. I would not trust it to anyone else.
We also recently took our cuckoo clock to their shop for repair. The dancers would no longer work. Michael looked at the clock and immediately knew the problem. Upon pick up after the repair, we were very impressed with Christian who explained all about the clock repair and what we needed to do to hang it once we got it home.
Excellent business!

I have worked with Master Clock in the past and when I recently inherited an antique clock, there was no question in my mind where to take it as it had a few issues and was not running. I made an appointment with Michael to meet and have him take a look and see what my options were. He was very thorough in his assessment and walked me through my options. Once completed (which was on time) we set a time for my return to pick it up. When I arrived, Michael explained to me the proper operation of the clock and how to set and calibrate. This was a very in-depth conversation and he never made me feel rushed, but rather it was evident that his goal was to make sure I had a clear understanding of all the intricacies of the clock as it is over 100 years old. I learned quote a bit and appreciate the level of service provided. With regard to the cost, it was very fair for the work performed. Additionally, on my first visit, all the terms were spelled out so there were no surprises. I will definitely return the next time I have a need. The level on competency and dedication is un matched.

We inherited my in-laws 47 year old grandmother clock that had not been running for approximately 12 years after their passing. Reached out to Michael via his website for setting up a "house call". Received a follow up call that day to discuss in detail what the circumstances were and determined that in all likelihood could be addressed on-site. They scheduled within a week and gave me a courtesy call when enroute. Michael assessed the issue and confirmed it could be repaired in my home and completed the job in about an hour. Not only was the clock brought back to life, but I was given a thorough explanation and shown what the problem was. He gave me a history of the clock itself and how to maintain its operation. There were several things about the clock that I was completely unaware of regarding its operation and how to best keep it running. He is without a doubt the most knowledgeable person I have encountered when it comes to clock work. He was on-time, professional and very conscientious. It is good to know that there are still "master craftsman" out there they take such pride in a job well done. Would only recommend him to others without hesitation.

I called Mike to ask if he would be able to service my Howard Miller Chaplin tripod grandfather clock. It needed internal repairs as well as cosmetic repairs. I took it in to Mike’s shop and he called Howard Miller to get the necessary replacement parts and worked to restore it to its original beauty. He delivered it to us and spent as much time as needed to teach us the correct way to operate the clock. So glad we contacted him first.

Fabulous service! Grandmother clock is working like new! also appreciated the education provided - it is keeping perfect time now as well. Thank you!

What a great business. I had two relatively old and very sentimental clocks that needed to be worked on. I couldn't have asked for better customer service and promptness. Not only are my clocks now up and running on the correct time, but I have learned how to properly maintain my clocks. Thank you Master Clock Repair!

This is a first class business. I first talked with Christian who helped me set up the appointment with his father, Mike. Mike showed up on time and moved my grandfather clock from one location to another and "tuned" up the clock. The clock works perfectly and keeps exact time. Mike was very professional with an incredible amount of clock knowledge. I can, without any reservations, highly recommend this firm.

Bought a vintage advertising wall clock. Time will tell when I would break it. With in 15 minutes, I broke it. It was getting late and I was running out of time. I called Master Clock Repair. I spoke with Christian, Mike's son. He gave me some options. One option was to let him or his dad take a look at my clock. With in a few minutes I knew what I was doing. I chose the Master Clock Repair to fix my clock and in no time, I was on my way. I am VERY HAPPY with the results. If you buy a clock and you break it or you bought it in need of repair, you have options. I suggest option number one, leave your clock in good hands at Master Clock Repair. These are very friendly people. Miles from Dublin, Ohio

One year later and my tall case clock (1720-1760’s) is keeping extremely accurate time. It stared running as soon as I leveled it and hasn’t stopped once. Mr. Gainey did a complete restoration and I couldn’t be more pleased with his work. Everyone should use his services wherever practical.

Mike arrived on schedule, along with his superb expertise ! Our grandfather clock had stopped chiming and then stopped working altogether. Mike not only repaired EVERYTHING but educated us as to the clocks life span, value, maintenance schedule, features , and history: what a good experience that afternoon was ! This is an A1 company !!!

While on an exchange tour in Ottawa Canada in 1993, I bought my wife a Jauch wall clock for our anniversary. Considering all of the change of duty stations and moving we did during our time in the US Navy, this clock worked well for the first 22 years. In the last few years we had to have the clock repaired three times by shops near Dayton, Ohio. However, none of the repairs were long term fixes and all three of these shops are no longer in business.

I searched on-line and found that Master Clock Repair came highly recommended. I was not disappointed. Michael explained our options to repair the clock in detail and there were no surprises. Seriously, I also enjoyed hearing the technical and historical background pertaining to my clock and some of the others in the shop. The quality of his work was outstanding and pricing was reasonable.

My only mistake was bringing my wife to pick up our repaired clock. As a result, we are now the proud owners of a 1920s mechanical office clock. Didn’t see that one coming.

All in all, I was definitely pleased with Michael's professionalism and attention to detail. I would highly recommend Master Clock Repair

Michael did an absolutely awesome job. He took a 170 year old clock that the movers had broken into 50 pieces and completely rebuilt it. It looks like it did before the move and works even better. I would recommend him to anyone. An amazing craftsman.

I am very happy with the service provided by Master Clock Repair.  Mike came out and introduced himself. The clock is 26 years old.  He explained, in great detail, the condition of the clock.  Which was pretty bad.  The gears had lots of rust and the chimes were pretty rough too.  He dove into the issues and oiled the gears and got them moving.  When I heard the chimes on their own I had to hold back my emotions as I had not heard those tones in years. 





Unfortunately I don't have much time with the clock due to it's age and many other companies would have declared it dead.  Mike worked on it and didn't give up.  It's running and sounding great.  



I called several other companies and they were outrageously priced.  All they wanted to do was replace the movement.   Mike has a true passion for clocks and it shows.  





When it comes time for me to replace the movement, I will be calling Master Clock Repair and giving my business to Mike!

Michael did an amazing job. His knowledge and expertise are unsurpassed as is his professionalism. He makes house calls, too, which is the best! He fixed five clocks in several hours for a very reasonable price and diagnosed a sixth, which is now scheduled to go to his workshop for major repairs. I will definitely invite him back and highly recommend him to others.

I have a beautiful Herschede Grandfather clock my Grandmother bought the year I was born. When it no longer ran Michael at Master Clock Repair restored the works perfectly. He is truly a master at clock repair. The clock not only keeps time perfectly but the chimes bring back many memories of my Grandmother.

I searched for several years looking for someone I felt was qualified to fix the chime tower on my antique open pendulum clock, and finally settled on Master Clock repair. Since this is a one of a kind clock with irreplaceable parts I was on pins and needles shipping the entire chime block and mount away to Columbus. Michael was able to replace the broken rod perfectly and return it in very quick fashion. Good job!

I would highly recommend master clock repair to anybody that wants there clocks repaired. They go beyond the call of duty, as I was looking for a missing number for a long time, as my local clock repair guy wouldn't give me the time of day. This wonderful company took the time to find my missing number 1. Thank you master clock repair for going out of your way. I would highly and I mean highly recommend this company.
